Coach Talk

tails
Whoa now tails, that's what we're lookin' for! A completion percentage of 90 percent this past go round for Mr. Precision... Uh, sorry, I mean Drew Brees. That Redskins defense didn't know what hit 'em! We know the manager of tails has got to be thankful for this type of precision and attention to detail.
温州榕树
Lots of cake, no icing: The six starting offensive skill players on 温州榕树 (three WRs, two RBs, one TE) combined to register a whopping 395 total yards. Not one of those players could find his way to the end zone in Week 5.
